I don't see the X-men thing at all. The connection seems so thin it might as well be any other two groups that don't like each other.
- Any child born could show signs of an accelerated X-Gene the same as Magic.
- The children begin showing signs at a later age the same as magic.
- Mutants are treated with fear, suspicion, and bigotry because of their abilities the same as mages are.
- The Mutant Registration Department exists to identify, expose, and "protect" the world from the threat of mutants the same as the Chantry claims to do with mages.
- The Sentinels hunt down and capture mutants and imprison them the same way Templars do mages.
- The MRD and sentinel program are both headed by bigoted Zealots. Just like the Templars.
- The Xavier Institute is a school for mutants to come to and be trained to control their powers and not misuse them, the same as the Circle.
- The Institute is lead by an older, fair, and wise headmaster, the same as the Circle. (Xavier = Irving)
- One of Xavier's main goals is to show the world that mutants are not to be feared and are not evil, same as Irving.
